Veterans Day

Sunday November 11, 2001

     I, like many of you will be observing today's ceremonies by attending local events honoring Americas Veterans. Whether you attend a parade, visit a National Cemetery or privately reflect upon those who served our nation, Americas veterans thank you. This year we are keenly aware of the events of September, 11 and it's aftermath. Once again young men and women are in harms way protecting our freedoms.

As veterans America looks to us today in appreciation for our service, and seeks understanding in the war we now face. We answer this call, by supporting our Armed Forces, and reassuring there families that we love them, thank them for their courage, and pray for their safe return.

Sincerely,
S.M.S.G.T. Gary Thomas U.S.A.F. Ret.
